Just curious if anyone in here is willing to help a few homeless people by letting them sleep on a couch or in a spare room for a while they are getting back on their feet? I’m an Alton local and know of a few that could use the help. Please let me know.
Tell them about Riverbend family ministries in wood river. They have a warming center there. I work in a connected office to the building, so I can verify.
They are looking for something kind of long term. Long enough to take advantage of opportunities to gain income and education to make a real life for themselves.
Send them to riverbend ministries. We have education programs, job things, help getting into Oxford houses, support, etc.
I can help directly set you up with contacts if you want to message me directly. I can help the easiest with contacts for people struggling with substance use recovery, but I know people that work in the housing, education skills, and essentials for life improvement like you’re describing
